Looking at the current geometry listed on their website, it does look like they've sourced a frame with a more sensible top tube length than their previous model. I had a 58cm frame and found the 60cm c-c top tube too long, even with a very short, high-rise stem. I also think the previous frame was 7001 alloy tubing, but I'm not sure what difference that makes.

+1 on what Bob Pringle says about cable routing. I believe I mentioned it in the thread previously linked. I also had trouble with fork chatter using Tektro Oryx cantilever brakes with Kool Stop pads, but I solved it with a fork mounted cable stop. If the forks on the new offering are different, this may not be a problem.
